in reply to Unable to read values from Excel file

Hello youhaveaBigEgo,

Check that Spreadsheet::ParseExcel is installed. When I run your script on Strawberry Perl v5.18.2 (on Windows 8.1), using Spreadsheet::Read 0.66, with debug => 5, it works correctly as follows:

16:01 >perl 1684_SoPW.pl $Options = { 'attr' => 0, 'debug' => 5, 'strip' => 0, 'clip' => 1, 'cells' => 1, 'rc' => 1, 'dtfmt' => 'yyyy-mm-dd' }; Opening XLS tmp.xls using Spreadsheet::ParseExcel-0.65 1 sheets Sheet 2 'Sheet1' 2 x 7 -35,-39,-39,-60,-35,-39, -36,-40,-40,-59,-36,-40, 16:01 >

BTW, your C-style for loops would be better written as foreach loops:

for my $i (1 .. 2) { for my $j (1 .. 6) {

Hope that helps,
